i don't understand, why don't you want to keep the pintara anymore that's working, but buy a car that has no engine and then buy another engine which probably won't be in any better condition by the sounds of the amount of funds you have, then you have to spend about $150 on oils, probably about that on replacement hoses and things you break putting the engine in, and lets not forget engine mounts hey ?
the pintara is an alright car, if it's the ca20e, i've been in one that surprised the shit out of me (eurisko's car namely), he has
extractors, stage 2 chip, twin spark set up which is for sale and a k&n induction system. Now as far as i know, they arn't the most expensive mods..another thing with your r31.
i heard you can change rear diffs that make the car hell of alot quicker ?
1. the air intake seems to be one of the problems & it causes the car to idle very roughly...what should i do?
2. im looking to improve the performance what would be most effective? (im not looking to turn 96kw into a 11sec car) like most pp, just turn a few heads and maybe an extra 20-50 kw
3. would an engine transplant be a good option?
1. It's an air intake leak, go over all the hoses and intake piping in your engine, while the engine is on, get some soapy water and spray it on all the hoses until you see it being "sucked" in, once you found that, you know where your problem is...
2. Exhaust, extractors, cold air intake, tune.
